Ran Into An "R" yesterday

[Wriggly]

Wriggly,

That looks like Kirk Rd. on the east side of St. Charles.... correct?

I haven't seen that car around the Tri-Cities / Fox Valley area before - the only other R that I know of is a Lightning Blue / Black stripe one that I've seen (and heard) at a distance twice late last summer.

Did you talk with the owner?

yep. Kirk road. Spoke with him briefly. He also owns a black GTR. Besides him there were two others at Irongate. Some guy even drove his Cobrajet in.

Did you have the chance to find out if it was a base or electronic?

I'll be in the Plainfield and Naperville area this weekend with my Lightning Blue with White Stripes to visit some friends.

I'll also be at the Autobahn on June 2 for NW Shelby Club event. Hope to see some of you there.

I'm still planning on being out there on the 2nd. I live in the Fox valley area as well, in West Dundee and 2 blocks from the river. I never see any Gt350's in the wild. I am a lone wolf out here.

Negative - I'm just a little ways down-river from you near the Tri-Cities area.

Sweet.

Awesome.

Is there any car show events happening over the weekend in the area?

Well now, I've seen you.

Ever go to Maxwells? Er, ah I mean Kabobs?

I have yet to check out Kabobs and never made it to Maxwell's before they closed shop. I do run around the area however, wreaking havoc.

Supercar Saturday at the Arboretum in Barrington will probably have the largest showing of cars worth checking out. Usually lots of P Cars, Lamborghini's, McLaren ….

People on this thread complaining and trying to figure out how to make their car more quiet on start up. Meanwhile, every time I start my car I can’t open my exhaust valves fast enough to make it louder. My wife and son always say goodbye to me in the garage when I leave for work, and both plug their ears when I start the car haha. #ILOVETHELOUDCOLDSTART ;)

Were you there? Several GT350's, but I never saw an Iowa plated car.

I have never seen an R in the wild (cars and coffee excluded), and soon I'd be that random R driving around.

I was out there. I was paddocked in the grass towards the café. a yellow Porsche GT4 was parked next to me.

First time at Autobahn and first time in the Shelby at the track. Completely different driving experience from my Camaro 1LE that I had before.

I think I saw you parked, but wasn't sure. were toward the South track?
